First Day of School







My boy is in kindergarten! He absolutely loves his class and comes home every day with a new song that they sang and teaches it to Reed. He has a friend from our ward in his class and he told me he likes to play with everyone! When I asked who he played with at recess he said "No one- they all wanted to play with me!" We got to go and meet his teacher the day before school started so he was not scared at all the first day. We are all adjusting to getting up earlier which is getting easier. The bus didn't start picking him up until this week and he was so excited. I was a little worried he wouldn't know where to go but we tried to explain it to him, I guess we didn't do a very good job because he followed some kids into the cafeteria, then proceeded to sit down and have breakfast. They were late that day, but he said someone told him he could finish his cereal before going to class. He then told us he didn't know where to go, and all the kids had left so he got sad (that means he cried) and a teacher helped him. I think it is great that they give free breakfast to all the kids if they want it- they catch the bus so early that sometimes they don't want to eat before school! He absolutely loved eating in the cafeteria!
I am so proud of my boy, and I can't believe he is 5! His birthday was the first day of school, so we had cookies in class- VERY EXCITING!

Oh he is cute! I was sad to hear about him crying, but I think we all have to do that as kids to learn! I cannot believe that you have one that big already, my how time flies!

ok i can't believe he's 5 either. that's just wrong! he sure is a cutie and he'll remember these things about school days. my problem (even though i have 4 years to go..) is that i dont know if i can wake up earlier! i'm a sleeper and i may just be asking you to give me a wake-up call every morning!
